Bongoboy, I am not hard rock lady...I am sweet rock lady.



Well, maybe hard and sweet rock lady.

In fact I was going to see Van Halen, but then was AC/DC and really impressed me, the man with his guitar.
Nice show, and beeing honest, the AC/DC music sounded much better than Van Halen's.

Nirvana was my second favorite band (after The Police).
I've discovered them in 91.

I also like independent bands like:
- The Melvins (one of Kurt Cobain's fav' group)
- Fugazi
- Shellac
- Nomeansno

Mainstream bands like:
- The Beatles
- Blur
- new wave bands of the 80's (mainly the singles)

More "obscure" bands:
- King Crimson
- Magma (they're french and they kick ass !!!)

A lot of indie french bands !

And also Serge Gainsbourg, a famous french composer and singer, died in 91.

You mean Angus Young?He used to wear like a school-boy and he seems a dwarf but he's really a tough guitarist!

You like progressive?I love it,expecially Genesis.Magma were good but Crimson were better.

[olivier]

D'you know Magma, Al ? Glad to know it !!
I'm not very fond of progressive rock (Marillion, Rush etc...), but these two bands are different for me. It remind me some "weird" things I can hear in actual indie music.

[Al]

Yes,I know them but not so well.Christian Vander was an excellent drummer,I wonder if he's still working.

[olivier]

Of course !!
Magma released an excellent album last year, called K.A.
They play some gigs in France.

[Al]

I've listened to some tracks of their first album,but nothing more.Merci pour les rendements (I hope it's correct)!

I need to check out Magma - I admit I like progressive quite a bit, personally, and I've never heard of them.

On a tangent, are there any other System of a Down fans here?

[Al]

The only one I like from them is "Chopsuey".Very cool.

[Mister Gradenko]

Does anyone like Lalo Schifrin?

[olivier]

sockii, I'd like to send you one or two mp3 of Magma.
It's sad we can't do this through this forum.
It would be great to share music or pictures...

[Guest]

you're right that would be a good idea

[sockii]

Olivier, I'll drop you an email...maybe you can use yousendit to send me a sample or two? I'd love to check them out.

Oh, and how could I forget one of my other favorite groups - MADNESS!!!!

They've been on my mind a lot lately. I don't know why...

[Guest]

we know why

this forum seems fascinated by them
